Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1887-09-28

The impression seems to prevail
in Paradise Valley that the Hum
boldt District Agricultural Society
will not pay in premiums the 81 900
which the State allows the Society.
1t is difficult to conceive how such
an impression got out or how any
intelligent man can entertain such
an idea. The Society will not only
pay the amount which the State
allows, but it offers nearly $4,000
besides in purses and premiums.

Threats of the Anarchists,
Wives.

New York, Sept. 26.-"If those
Anarchists are hanged, their wives
will kill their children and then
commit suicide" said Mrs. Captain
Black to reporter of the World
yesterday. "Nina Van Zandt has
frequently assured me that if her
husband, August Spies, goes to the
scaffold, she will die by her own
band at the same hour. The other
women tell me the same thing
"To let these men live," Mrs. Black
continued, "will not result so dis
astrously as some people pretend to
think. But if they are hanged as
the Citizens Train says, there'll be
sheol to pay. The workingmen re-
gard the condemned men as ho-
stages and if they don't get them
b q *, there will be serious trouble"
According to Mrs. Black, Miss Van
Zandt is not alone in her insane in
fatuation. She declared that a
beautiful and wealthy girl is in
love with Lingg The parents had
to lock her up to keep her away from
the Jail.

There is a woman in this city who
claims to be the eldest daughter of
Victoria, Queen of England. She
claims to have been defrauded of
rights and to be the real Princess
Victoria. She has written a book
about herself which is soon to be

Prince Consort had a morganatic
wife whom he espoused before mar

supposed Princess Victoria is the
daughter of his morganatic wife,
and their papa exchanged them

THE CARSON ACADEMY.
The Report of the Tempo.
rary Committee.

There will be a public meeting
on Friday evening at 7 O'Clock at
the Presbyterian Church of all per-
sons interested in founding an aced-
envy in this city for the teaching
of the higher branches of learning,
ana enabling young men to fit
themselves for college without 60
ing to San Francisco.
About ten days ago a committee
was appointed to devise a plan of
operations, and their report is here
published in order that the scope
and aim of the project may be well
understood:
The Committee appointed 10 con-
slider the establishment of Presby-
terrain academy or college at Carson
City, Nevada, will report as fol-
lows:
The Church's plan for academies
and colleges is that the local church
aided by the community furnish the
grounds and buildings, and the
Board of Aid for colleges and acade-
mics help in the support OF teaca-
ers till the school can become self
sustaining. The Board reserves the
right to decide the location of the
buildings and the grade of the
school; whether college preparatory
or college.
At least two-thirds of the mem
bers of the local Board of Control
must by perpetual charter provision
be communing members of the
Presbyterian Church. The appli-
cation for organization and for aid
must, ii a college. be to the Synod.
The school must continue to be I'M
der the Synod's supervision.
While Presbyterian institution,
it is not so in a narrow or sectarian
sense, but the religious preferences
of all its attendants will be re-
spected. The purpose is to found
an institution of learning for both
sexes for instruction in the lam
guages, especially the classics;
mathematics and natural sciences,
under positive Christian teaching
and religious influence. Though at
first instruction would be confined
to the academic grade, there are
goods reasons for obtaining a college
charter. There is no similar insti-
tuition in the State, and we are sep
arated by mountain ranges and
long distances from other States.
The present population of Nevada,
about sixty thousand, and the
States eventful prosperity, founded
upon the mineral wealth and pas
toral and agricultural products just
ify the establishment of college.
The grounds should include about
five or six acres or four city blocks.
The building erected should be COM
plete with necessary furniture, and
be left without incumbrance or debt.
The cost will have to be determined
by the available means. The ma
terial of the structure, the style of
the architecture and especially the
addition of dormitories will make a
wide difference Probably two
story building with recitation halls
will be sufficient in the beginning
If the Synod approves, we recon-
mend calling public meeting in the
near future and canvass for sub
scriptions. All of which is respecti-
fully submitted.

Maintaining the Fertility of Soils
American Agricultur7st.


There are few rules in regard to
maintaining fertility which should be
followed. One is that all the unsOld
or unfed portions of crops should, if
possible, be returned to the soil upon
which they grew, or an equivalent
should be returned. Thus, if wheat is
raised. the grain sold and the straw
composted with the dung of animals,
we form manure which returns much
that was removed by the crop. If the
straw be partly or wholly fed to ami
mails, still a large portion naturally
finds its way back to the soil. A pOr-
ton of the plant food supply is ire
|coverably lost in the grain sold, in the
bones of the animals, in the milk sold
off the farm, etc. But we can calcu
late very nearly what this loss is and
make it good at small expense if we
do not delay too long. 1t is much bet
ter to feed than to sell hay and straw,
because the tax upon the soil is so
much less, and whoever does sell these
products should surely plan to buy fer
tilizers to make good his drafts upon
the soil. Near cities it is always easy
to buy stable manure and this is Ordi-
.narily the most economical. The hay,
grain and straw are thus returned, the
loss is not only made good, but the
condition of the land is improving all
the time, for this is the natural result
Of tillage.

A Little Farm Well Titled.

Dr. Hoskins in Rural VermOnter
A vast amount of burdensOme, Grip
pling debt is incurred by young farm
ers who buy more land than they can
pay for, or make pay. This is the Sc
cret of the small, Improbable crops,
that bring down, not only the average
production, but also the average profit
of farming. Were the same manure
and the same labor now applied to the
farms of New England, laid out on
One-half, or even one third the land,
the actual net profits would be more
than doubled while the security and
enjoyment of farm life would be in
creased i'll a still greater proportion.
This is n lesson which has long been
taught, but is very slowly learned.
Why should it be so? We can attrib-
ute it to nothing else but the fact that
farmers do not sufficiently we'll under
stand the fundamental principles of
their trade to make farming pay.
They doubt their own capacity to do
what they have been so long taught
should be done in this direction and
feeling this way, they do not have the
courage to try. Another thing, the
old farmers talk in way to scare them
out of it. The ridicule of the old
farmers is Il terror to those young ones,
who otherwise might have the courage
to try new departure in this direc-
ton. But, boys, the old men don't
know everything. Have the courage
of your convictions, and go ahead.

Feed Some Grain with Your Grass.
DR.. Hoskins in Rural Vermonter

DR.. Hosklns IA Rural EeTnonter.
Several of the best dairymen who
spoke at the st. JOhnsbury meeting,
last winter, expressed the opinion that
grain, fed to their cows at pasture, dali
] ~, paid them as good profit as any
thing they did. The old fOgies will
whistle and wink over this, but the
men who talked that thing are making
money, and there is nothing fancy
about their farming, if by fancy you
mean disregard to the profits. AS a
writer in an exchange says, with force
and truth "Dairymen are especially
concerned in this matter, for the sum-
mer feeding is the source from which
the greater part of the years profit is
to be derived. Glass and green crops
are succulent and digestible, but they
contain large quantity of water and
are deficient in the fat and prOteine, or
IalbuminOid matter, needed for the
most profitable product of a dairy.
Therefore the dairyman should feed
corn meal or cOttOnseed meal, with
bran and middlings, with the green
fodder, but the quantity to be used,
and even the kind of these foods, must
be determined by careful experiment,
the results of which are to be noted
r7lay by day for sufficient time to
found a rule upon"

VermOnt's Glory.
Troy Press.


Vermont has many distinguishing
qualities. Among others, it is the
most beautiful of the New England
States. 1t has always had one great
United States senator and generally
two.
1t is the only state in the Union that
ever furnished a United States minister
to Great Britain that represented no
party in the country but was party
in himself. 1t now enjoys that great
honor in the person of Edward j.
Phelps.
Another distinguishing fact is men,
toned by Henry B. Stanton in his pos
thumOus memoir, "RandOm RecOllec-
tiOns," in which he says, referring to
an anecdote unimpOrtant for quotation
here:
By a queer sort of analogy, this re-
minds me of the course of Vermont
during the mob period (anti abolition
mObs, I935538) where | delivered from
time to time some anti-slavery ad-
dresses. | was mObbed in every State
from Indiana to Maine, except Yer
mont. | never heard Of an anti-slav-
cry mob within its borders. The land
of Stark refrained from that fascinat-
ing recreation.

A Good Suggestion.
Boston Herald.

One gallon of whisky costs about
50 and contains, on the average, sixty
FIVE ten-cent drinks. Now if you must
drink whisky, buy a gallon and make
your wife the bar keeper; then when
you are dry, give her ten cents for
drink. When the whisky is gone she
will have, after paying for it, $3.50
left, and every gallon thereafter will
yield the same profit. This money
she should put in the savings bank, so
that, when you have become an inebri
ate, unable to support yourself and
stunned and despised by every re-
spectacle person, your wife may have
money enough to keep you until your
time comes to fill drunkard's grave.

IF YOU DON'T DO 1T SOME ONE
ELSE WILL.
Good Housekeeping.

With all our modern progressive
ideas on the culture and training of
children, one duty seems to be to
great degree overlooked namely,-that
of answering children's questions re-
garding the origin of their existence.
There is the advent of little stranger
in your home, and as your wondering
child of Il dozen years perhaps, asks
you the old, old question, you no doubt
answer her as your mother answered
you, and as her mother replied to the
same question. But can yOu-living
i'll these days dare you looking into her
earnest truthful face-tell her what
you know, and what she will soon
know is false? From whose lips do
you wish her to hear of such sacred
thingsP Who else so devOutly as You,
can enter that "holy of HOLES" with
your child What IL tie to bind her to
you in tender confidence have you
lost But you let her go from YOU un-
satisfied and thoughtful, and if you
have never done so before, you have
now made little wall of separation
between yourself and her, and when
her curiosity is again excited, she will
appeal to some one else-sOme other
possibly not as innocent, and heart
that should have remained as pure as
the morning, is contaminated with vain
imaginations, until the eyes that once
looked into yours for truthful answer,
would quail before you, could you read
the thoughts of guilty hearth
But" IA mother once said to me, "all
the bloom and innocence of her girl
hood would be gone"
assure you it may be gone past
your recall, though you seek it Scar
nestly and with tears" unless you at
tend to this duty yourself. You do
not know what bond of sympathy
such IA course will establish between
yourself and your child, and all through
her life, the memory of your words will
have "A sweet, restraining influence, the
value of which will be untold and i'm
measurable. 1t will be easier than you
think a few words at first will suffice,
assuring her that a subject SO tender
and sacred must not be spoken of to
others, and that when any such ques
ton troubles her again, she must come
to you only for the truth which you
will tell her. Thus, gradually her
mind at rest on the subject, it will be
absorbed as beautifully as any other
know ledge, and depend upon it. A
child thus reared will never impart nor
receive the ordinary school girl infor
nation. And if such instruction should
be given your daughters, it is equally
important that In the safe shelter of
the home nest, under your own roof
tree, your boys should receive the same,
from the lips which laid the first bene-
diction upon their heads. Ii will be IA
chrism of love, "a baptism of purity,
and safeguard against temptation for
lack of which, so many of our youth
wander into "ways which lead down
